Cuffed – Possessed

When I first heard the fant­ast­ic song 'Possessed' by 'Cuffed', I was impressed by its eer­ie and haunt­ing sound. The vocals remind me a bit of 'She Pleasures Herself' and the instru­ment­a­tion is sim­il­ar to bands like 'Sisters Of Mercy' and 'Boy Harsher'. The song is a unique blend of clas­sic dark wave with con­tem­por­ary syn­thwave ele­ments, res­ult­ing in an incred­ible sound that leaves a last­ing impression.

The tempo and beat of the song are per­fect for dan­cing, yet it still man­ages to main­tain its mel­an­chol­ic and sombre mood. The over­all mood of the song is gloomy, but also incred­ibly catchy and dance­able. The crisp and clear beat blends per­fectly with the vocals, cre­at­ing a mel­an­chol­ic and thought­ful feel.

This song is part of our Spotify playl­ist ‘New Synth Pop Songs 2023‘. The playl­ist is updated con­tinu­ously. Follow this playl­ist now and don’t miss any of the latest synth pop hits in 2023.

Lyrics of 'Cuffed – Possessed'

Awaken the night
When I’m com­ing to life
I can’t see in the light
I’m burn­ing inside
And thrilled by the fear
of the pull that I’m feeling

Control me
You stole my soul
Console me
Don’t let me go
I sold myself now take me whole
Don’t let me go

I open my eyes
And I see noth­ing here
But I know that you’re near me
Will you take my hand
And lead me down below
To the world that you know

Control me
You stole my soul
Console me
Don’t let me go
I sold myself now take me whole
Don’t let me go

Cuffed about 'Possessed'

In ‘Possessed’ we inhab­it the skin of one who is aching to sub­mit; dying to give them­self in mind, body and soul to the chaos that inhab­its the back alleys and base­ments of Los Angeles, and what that per­son might find if they look in the right places.
